Reported here: https://lists.webkit.org/pipermail/webkit-gtk/2014-November/002134.html and followed with the gnutls developers here: http://lists.gnutls.org/pipermail/gnutls-help/2014-November/003673.html

Some sites ( for example: https://www.pge.com/eum/login ) are banning SSL 3.0 record packet versions, and GnuTLS uses by default a a SSL 3.0 version record in client hello to advertise TLS (even when SSL 3.0 is disabled).
